Why you’ll love it
It’s one of Korea’s best-known “calming creams” for sensitive and breakout-prone skin. Niacinamide, beta-glucan, panthenol and dipotassium glycyrrhizate help with redness and recovery, while green tea EGCG adds antioxidant support. The formula is alcohol-, fragrance- and essential-oil-free, so it layers well under actives.
Free-from: alcohol, fragrance, essential oils.
Ethics: cruelty-free brand positioning varies by region; no animal-derived actives in this product’s INCI.
